im in this facebook group "silly linguistics" and someone posted "whats the difference between sex and gender" and its basically a transmisogyny/trans-antagonist free for all up in there. i basically commented and linked in the mods saying that tolerating this kind of shit is exactly how to make trans ppl leave your group and run a trans antagonistic community... god fucking damn it.
@alyx oo nice thanks!!!
just installed a firefox redirector plugin so that every time i instinctively type "maps.google.com" i will be redirected to openstreetmaps <3 <3
also would be interested in a plugin that allows bookmarks to be first result in the "awesome bar", so they can be run like a dmenu. so i make a bookmark called 'maps' and then if i type maps it takes me to that link.
i fucking love maps ok. i really do. i travel the wold in digital maps every day. today i went to hokkaido, japan.

also i installed firefox nightly recently and im a big fan :) also it looks cool.
im pretty in to this new "containers" feature on firefox, i see how it would be especially super useful for people who use facebook and other corporate social media who also shop online. if you do your shopping in a "shopping" container, and your social media in a "personal" container, then your social media wont be buggered with ads of the things you searched. i find that really nice.
@interlinked seems like you aim to censor the extreme left?
@interlinked what's leftist extremism?
anticapitalist.party has been filtered from the federated timeline due to the numerous amount of leftist extremism and advocacy of violence on that instance.
You can still follow users from anticapitalist.party, and they can follow you.
If any problematic users' boosts or such get through, please notify this account or an administrator.
NB: they have had us filtered similarly for a while.
witches.town has been filtered from the federated timeline due to the head administratix and multiple users repeatedly advocating extreme violence and armed revolution.
You can still follow users from witches.town, and they can follow you.

@cooler_ranch meh im embarassed anyway. shame is a big motivator for me to get better. at least when the person sayskno english, i try. and the woman said its a long wait for an english speaking appointment, i can speak well and can do it in german. that boosted my ego.
@cooler_ranch what do u mean?
today i embarassingly called my country "grosser Königreich".
also i kept asking the woman at the bank if i need an Anmeldung to open an account, and she kept saying yes, you need a "Termin"... thinking i meant appointment. so, i just agree to make an appointment, and she says I need to bring my Anmeldung :D i said, that was the first question, i kept asking. and she said "oh thats what you meant by "Anmeldung"... but i cant really blame her i mix things up.
also does anyone use tlp on their laptop and do they recommend it? the docs are well outdated and i wonder if its still useful/maintained?
does anyone have any idea how to configure systemd (i presume) such that my two battery thinkpad changes from battery one to battery two at a higher percent/threshold than is default?
i dont think allowing my primary battery to go basically to 7% or so again and again to reach half of my machines capacity is healthy for the first battery...

At witches.town, we use as the default trans flag. I wanted to raise awareness as to why we should use it and embrace it.
To start, black trans women and trans women of colour face the most violence and are the primary victims of murder and assault. This version of the trans flag was created by Raquel Willis to raise awareness of violence against TWOC.
The second reason is that the white bar in the trans flag we are mostly used to is a graphical representation of a problem in our community: centering whiteness. Trans communities need to decenter whiteness to work for liberation of all trans people.
“Phantom” bug turns Google Home Mini into a covert surveillance device, recording randomly 24-7
Wow I'm shocked... not. This article is so cute how they give Google the benefit of the doubt. It activates because of "phantom touches" eh? Not that they would have any motive for recording anything...
